    What happens when a man builds a house upon the sand?

    The east coast is shrinking..the west coast is growing bigger..a train track built 150 years ago on the seafront in Wales is now a mile from the sea.

    Damn. They needed a lot more than just those white plastic circles holding gravel? sand? Preferably, they'd need a bunch of large boulders stacked long, wide & high along the hillside, with a retaining wall of reinforced concrete, too. And they'd need to cover the entire length of the hillside, not just what's in front of their houses.

    It's been doing this for 60 years to my knowledge. I was 16 when I first saw this sea damage to the land.

    This is a VERY natural phenomenum, this British island decreases on the East and increases in the west - it's called TIDES 🙄🙄

    No pensaba que eran tan tontos los ingleses al construir tan cerca del mar y mas viendo a las claras que eso son "dunas" es decir terreno "natural " del mar, que mas pronto que tarde volvera a ocupar.

      They should have never been allowed to build on sand. No permits should have ever been issued for structures to be built on dunes. I'm surprized an insurance company would insure these homes or pay when destroyed by ocean surge. Maybe they didn't pay. Hmmmmm.
